MANHUNTERS Of SCORPIO

Dray Prescot, Earthman on the planet Kregen of Antares... was he to remain a prince of proud Vallia or just one more human victim of the hunters and manhounds of the mysterious Southern Continent?

For that was the enigmatic fate that the Star Lords had suddenly confronted him with.  They wanted someone freed from the terrified pack of human prey among which Prescot found himself.  But who it was and how it was to be done, they left to him.

In unknown Havilfar, there were other mysteries to be solved and other discoveries to be made - and Prescot knew there could be no return to his princess and his newly won homeland until he had done the bidding of his all-powerful tormenters.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
